The openSUSE 13.2 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

- CVE-2015-8956: The rfcomm_sock_bind function in
  net/bluetooth/rfcomm/sock.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to
  obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
  dereference) via vectors involving a bind system call on a Bluetooth
  RFCOMM socket (bnc#1003925).
- CVE-2016-5195: A local privilege escalation using MAP_PRIVATE was fixed,
  which is reportedly exploited in the wild (bsc#1004418).
- CVE-2016-8658: Stack-based buffer overflow
  in the brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap function in
  drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg80211.c in the Linux
  kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash)
  or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long SSID Information
  Element in a command to a Netlink socket (bnc#1004462).
- CVE-2016-7117: Use-after-free vulnerability in the __sys_recvmmsg
  function in net/socket.c in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers
  to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving a recvmmsg system call
  that is mishandled during error processing (bnc#1003077).
- CVE-2016-0823: The pagemap_open function in fs/proc/task_mmu.c in the
  Linux kernel before 3.19.3, as used in Android 6.0.1 before 2016-03-01,
  allowed local users to obtain sensitive physical-address information by
  reading a pagemap file, aka Android internal bug 25739721 (bnc#994759).
- CVE-2016-7425: The arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in
  drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel did not restrict
  a certain length field, which allowed local users to gain privileges
  or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) via an
  ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control code (bnc#999932).
- CVE-2016-6327: drivers/infiniband/ulp/srpt/ib_srpt.c in the Linux
  kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
  dereference and system crash) by using an ABORT_TASK command to abort
  a device write operation (bnc#994748).
- CVE-2016-6828: The tcp_check_send_head function in include/net/tcp.h
  in the Linux kernel did not properly maintain certain SACK state after a
  failed data copy, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service
  (tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue use-after-free and system crash) via a crafted
  SACK option (bnc#994296).
- CVE-2016-5696: net/ipv4/tcp_input.c in the Linux kernel did not properly
  determine the rate of challenge ACK segments, which made it easier for
  man-in-the-middle attackers to hijack TCP sessions via a blind in-window
  attack (bnc#989152)
- CVE-2016-6480: Race condition in the ioctl_send_fib function in
  drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users
  to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access or system crash)
  by changing a certain size value, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability
  (bnc#991608).
- CVE-2015-7513: arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel did not reset
  the PIT counter values during state restoration, which allowed guest
  OS users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and host
  OS crash) via a zero value, related to the kvm_vm_ioctl_set_pit and
  kvm_vm_ioctl_set_pit2 functions (bnc#960689).
- CVE-2016-1237: nfsd in the Linux kernel allowed local users to bypass
  intended file-permission restrictions by setting a POSIX ACL, related
  to nfs2acl.c, nfs3acl.c, and nfs4acl.c (bnc#986570).

The following non-security bugs were fixed:

- AF_VSOCK: Shrink the area influenced by prepare_to_wait (bsc#994520).
- xen: Fix refcnt regression in xen netback introduced by changes made for bug#881008 (bnc#978094)

- Update patches.fixes/0001-posix_acl-Add-set_posix_acl.patch (bsc#986570 CVE#2016-1237).
- apparmor: fix change_hat not finding hat after policy replacement (bsc#1000287).
- arm64: Honor __GFP_ZERO in dma allocations (bsc#1004045).
- arm64: __clear_user: handle exceptions on strb (bsc#994752).
- arm64: dma-mapping: always clear allocated buffers (bsc#1004045).
- arm64: perf: reject groups spanning multiple HW PMUs (bsc#1003931).
- blkfront: fix an error path memory leak (luckily none so far).
- blktap2: eliminate deadlock potential from shutdown path (bsc#909994).
- blktap2: eliminate race from deferred work queue handling (bsc#911687).
- btrfs: ensure that file descriptor used with subvol ioctls is a dir (bsc#999600).
- cdc-acm: added sanity checking for probe() (bsc#993891).
- kaweth: fix firmware download (bsc#993890).
- kaweth: fix oops upon failed memory allocation (bsc#993890).
- netback: fix flipping mode (bsc#996664).
- netback: fix flipping mode (bsc#996664).
- netfront: linearize SKBs requiring too many slots (bsc#991247).
- nfsd: check permissions when setting ACLs (bsc#986570).
- posix_acl: Add set_posix_acl (bsc#986570).
- ppp: defer netns reference release for ppp channel (bsc#980371).
- tunnels: Do not apply GRO to multiple layers of encapsulation (bsc#1001486).
